Frequently asked questions

Are there opportunities to do practical training while I study?

Yes, students can earn money and gain practical work experience through UFV’s Co-operative Education Program. Available in several disciplines, the Co-op option combines full-time studies with discipline-related work terms in real jobs in a variety of Canadian companies, institutions, and government organizations.

As a co-op program student, you earn your academic credentials and gain valuable applied skills and professional experience at paid jobs that can help subsidize your living expenses. On top of that, you also receive coaching to help you ace any job interview and build a résumé that stands out.

Co-op opportunities are available to Canadian and international students alike.
